i am passionate about education. >> education is the bedrock to our future. or to cut represents a strong state that supports education. the number of schools we have -- it is absolutely critical. as it relates to education, the decision should be local. ae challenge we have what's lot of programs coming down with rules and red tape that made it impossible to run the highest impact like we do in north dakota. one size fits all rules are made in washington where they as in every community is a least a million people. that does not work for small towns in north dakota. we need to do what we can to get those dollars to the state and to the local communities with as few strings as possible. no child left behind -- there's no question that that started out a bipartisan thing with good intentions, and has failed. i sponsored a bill that would allow states to opt out of no child left behind. we need to again put those controls come up with that power with the local school boards, put it with the state legislature, to move forward. >> i agree with congressman ber g.
